About Me

I love to perform and will tackle just about anything. I am a perfectionist and always endeavour to find the natural changes to pace and tone within a character's lines. I work hard to learn a script as quickly as quickly as possible (including blocking) in order to devote as much time as possible to finding the person and delivering a convincing performance.

Other Information

Relevant Skills

I am very strong at initial readings which often benefits the other actors at auditions/rehearsals as they have something well defined to react to.

Interests & Hobbies

Music, Reading (primarily military history & sci-fi/fantasy), Acting, Crossword Puzzles and Writing Quizzes. God almighty, that sounds dull!

Miscellaneous Information

There are many more experienced actors than myself. What I can bring to bear, however, is a great enthusiasm and willingness to muck in wherever needed. I came to acting comparatively late and therefore feel the need to try harder than anybody else to make something of my interest.
